All epic sites may be Flash, but not all Flash sites are epic! (Sorry, Clover generic sites drive me nuts)

Dude...I am digging the Paper app. It's the digital sketchbook I've always wanted. Starting some sketches for one of your projects with it.

Oh, and I'm dying to play with a Lytro camera.

The Tour the Capital site works on my iPhone... so it must not be all flash. If the desktop version is, it seamlessly gives me a mobile version (doesn't even redirect to a m. url) where I don't feel like I am visiting a broken site or missing out on content.
